Results: The pVM1 group included 14 lesions (2.9%). On univariate analysis, tumor diameter (p < 0.001), pathological invasion depth (pT1b; p < 0.0001) had a significant effect on pVM1. On multivariate analysis of those factors, pT1b was the only factor that had a significant effect on pVM1. The pVM1 rates in pT1a and pT1b lesions were 0.047% and 17.9% (p < 0.0001),
respectively, and the diagnostic rate of invasion depth was 96.1% overall. Conclusion: Submucosal (SM) invasion depth had a significant effect on pVM1. When SM invasive cancer is suspected prior to surgery, it may become incomplete resection when ESD is performed for the primary tumor. In such cases, full-thickness resection is desirable for cT1b gastric cancer. The future development of function-preserving or reductive surgeries that bridge the gap between ESD and standard surgery in such cases of potentially Aloxistatin cost invasive gastric cancer is desired.

University, Okayama University, Okayama University Objective: Postoperative hepatolithiasis is one of the complications, which often occur in patients who underwent hepaticojejunostomy due to various pancreatobiliary diseases. In treatment for hepatolithiasis, it is important to remove the stones completely. We evaluated the efficacy of peroral direct cholangioscopy (PDCS) using an ultraslim endoscope for treatment of hepatolithiasis in patients hepaticojejunostomy. Methods: Between April 2012 and April 2014, 14 patients with hepatolithiasis, who had undergone bowel reconstruction with hepaticojejunostomy, 上海皓元 were included. Firstly, diagnostic and therapeutic ERC by using a short double-ballon enteroscope (DBE) (EC-450BI5 or EI-530B, Fujifilm,
Tokyo) was performed in all patients. Following removal of hepatolithiasis, the DBE was exchanged for an ultraslim endoscope (EG-530NW; Fujifilm, Tokyo) through the overtube for performing PDCS. Results: The success rate of PDCS was 85.7% (12/14). In 5 of 12 (41.7%) patients with successful PDCS, the residual stones were detected and removed completely by using a 5-Fr basket and/or suction after normal saline irrigation. In the remaining 7 (58.3%) patients, no residual stone was detected. The median PDCS procedure time was 14 min (range, 8–36). No serious procedure-related complications were observed. Median followed up after PDCS was 15.5 month (range, 3–27), and only one patient (8.3%) had recurrence of hepatothiliasis.
